A user may set the SO_TXTIME socket option to ensure a packet is send
at a given time. The taprio scheduler has to confirm, that it is allowed
to send a packet at that given time, by a check against the packet time
schedule. The scheduler drop the packet, if the gates are closed at the
given send time.
The check, if SO_TXTIME is set, may fail since sk_flags are part of an
union and the union is used otherwise. This happen, if a socket is not
a full socket, like a request socket for example.
Add a check to verify, if the union is used for sk_flags.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
